I've been studying at Zabaan for more than a month, just finished my course this week and I am so glad I chose them. It was recommended to me by my University Professors and it was the perfect choice. My tutor, Tamanna, is super professional, competent and she helped me out with my hindi learning journey. I hope that in the future I'll have another opportunity to follow a course at Zabaan. That's all I can add. Thank you so much!

I spent two months taking full-time in-person classes at Zabaan, and I'm very glad that I did. All of my teachers (Tamanna, Anita, Priya) were top notch. They are super knowledgeable, kind and helpful. Their expertise in teaching Hindi as a second language was so valuable, and I would love to continue classes with them in the future.

I have enjoyed taking the in-person intermediate Hindi classes in the Delhi office, as well as now taking online classes which are very professional and enjoyable, and I receive homework that gets marked for each class. Highly recommend.

I have been learning English with Zabaan for the past two years. Before delving into my review, I must acknowledge that my relationship with English was far from satisfactory. In the past, I attempted to learn from various sources, including a few other esteemed institutions, but none could effectively address my struggles with the language. When I felt that learning English had become an insurmountable challenge, my friend Malini recommended Zabaan School for Languages. Intrigued by their website, I contacted Zabaan and commenced my English lessons with Ali.Prior to this, I had not watched a single English movie, series, or documentary because I simply could not understand anything they were say. Ali encouraged me to explore suitable English content, and initially he met with my resistance. However, he consistently motivated me, providing compelling reasons to watch various interesting shows. While many people turn to Ali for language learning, my experience with with him also evolved into a personal and spiritual journey. Ali Taqi is a deeply knowledgeable person and I'm sure anyone who has come into contact with him would agree with the same. I will forever cherish this enriching experience.Zabaan was more language school, it was a place of higher learning. Throughout this journey, I discovered aspects about myself and the world that I had never known. Although my formal education with Zabaan may conclude soon, my learning will be perpetual. As an Urdu storyteller, I know the nuances of language, and Ali's exceptional way of explaining things never cease to amaze me.Heartfelt thanks to my ustad Ali, and to Zabaan in general, for this transformative experience. I am officially an English speaker and I can not tell you how happy I am for it. To anyone aspiring to learn a language, Zabaan is the best in world.
